Assuming that the door was not removed for the new element to be fitted, then it sounds to ne as thiugh the oven door hinges are weak.
The only solution is to replace both door hinges,
If the door was removed, then it could possibly be not fitted back correctly.
Thank you for the reply.
The door was not removed during the element fitting, the second seems plausable as the oven is about 4-5 years old, i there any way for me to remove the door and re-attach it so that it would fit flush or would you just recommend getting new hinges.
Also any idea about how much these would cost before i look into this option.
Once again thank you for your responce.
Hi.
I would advise you to replace both oven door hinges, as they are not adjustable.
They will cost about £30.00 from Hotpoint inc vat.
